Bont Vaypor+ Road Shoe Cycling Shoes

The Bont Vaypor+ Road Shoe features Bont’s innovative carbon technology which ensures the highest strength to weight ratio and lowest stack height possible so you get a better connection to the pedal and minimum power loss in a lightweight package. The upper has been crafted from kangaroo leather, known for its light weight, high strength and durability, and the cowhide inner ensures a luxuriously supple, comfortable fit. If you are a road cyclist who demands the best from yourself and your kit, the Bont Vaypor+ Road Shoe delivers a luxury fit and feel, great performance and beautiful design in a range of colour to suit your individual style. Bont Technology Anti Stretch Between the outer leather and the liner, Bont has added their exclusive anti-stretch material to stop the cycling shoe from stretching over time. This material has similar strength characteristics to Kevlar. It is stitched to the outer leather and bonded to the liner so it can never move or be removed; it becomes part of the cycling shoes structure. This layer assits in pedalling efficiency by maintaining a supportive structure over the top of the foot in the upward part of the pedal stroke. Carbon Fiber Bont carbon fiber is sourced exclusively from the world’s #1 carbon manufacturer, Toray of Japan. The base of the Vaypor+ is made by hand utilizing uni-directional carbon fiber which is embedded with epoxy thermo setting resin. The fibers are hand laid in the matrix according to the strain they will have to bear. The Vaypor+ utilizes unidirectional carbon fiber allowing Bont to create a performance cycling shoe with very specific strength characteristics based on stress points in cycling. As unidirectional carbon absorbs less resin then cross weave fibers, it also assists in the weight reduction of the cycling shoes. Last Design A last is a replica of a foot that the cycling shoe is built around. Last makers do not make cycling shoe lasts. They only make shoe lasts so perfecting a cycling shoe last requires a great deal of expertise in functional biomechanics and ongoing research. Bont has been perfecting their performance footwear lasts since 1975 and the process is ongoing. They place more importance and thus place more effort into their last than any other cycling shoe brand and it is the reason that Bont cycling shoes continue to be a leader in providing the most functional and correct anatomical support to cyclists than any other brand on the market. Their motto in terms of cycling shoe fit is simple, “We make shoes for cycling, not walking.” Padding The Vaypor+ utilises closed cell memory foam that will not retain water which means the shoe does not gain weight during wet conditions. Sweat, which can cause the materials of the shoe to degrade, is not absorbed which prolongs the life of the shoes. TPU Toe Protector The toe protector not only protects the front area of the shoe from wheel rub and impact, but also houses ventilation holes for improving airflow through the shoe. Heat Moulding Bont’s proprietary resin has been developed and perfected over 36 years to be an extremely stiff resin that becomes pliable at relatively low temperatures. Unlike other shoes which are moldable only in select locations, all Bont cycling shoes can be molded over the entire chasis providing you with not only with the most anatomically designed cycling shoe on the market today, but also with the ability to fine tune the fit of the entire shoe to give a customised fit. Medial Longitudinal Arch Support Structural medial longitudinal arch support is provided in all models to stop over pronation of feet. Over pronation is one of the main contributors to incorrect tracking of knees during the pedalling motion due to internal rotation of tibia and femur. This can result in knee injuries. In addition, the rotation of tibia/femur can cause the pelvis to tilt resulting in lower back strain. Anatomical Forefoot Shape Conventional cycling shoes offer a “dress shoe” type shaping. Although highly aesthetic this will cause the toes along with the metatarsals to be overly constricted, compressing the nerves between the metatarsals which often results in the common “hot foot” sensation. Bont cycling shoes anatomical shaping allows the foot to function in its most efficient and anatomically correct position. The foot is supported in its endeavour to relax through the metatarsal joints allowing the pedalling force to be spread across the greatest possible surface area. Anatomical Heel Cup The anatomical heel cup shaping of Bont cycling shoes provides increased stability during the pull through stage of the pedalling stroke. This stabilisation is achieved without any mechanical operation or over tightening of straps/laces allowing for increased comfort and blood circulation. Lateral Forefoot Support Bont’s lateral forefoot support ensures neutral positioning of the forefoot and alleviates common issues associated with over pronation and supination. These issues often result in incorrect tracking of knees causing injuries along with hip and lower back pain Technical Specs Stack Height: 3.6 mm Air Vents Ventilation via air vents on front bumper and perforated upper Innersole: EVA thermo-moldable Replaceable Sole Guards Memory Foam Padding Cleat Mounting: MM grid plus grip / 3 Hole Look Configuration Fit Customization: Fully Heat Moldable Chassis utilising Epoxy Thermoset Resin Closing Options: BOA IP1 Dual Dial Retention System with Kevlar wiring
